Casual Outfits Under £70 

Katie Smith shows us how find the perfect everyday outfit without breaking the bank
 
Most women in our society today have one of two issues in their life. They either hate shopping with a passion, would rather clean the house than actually leave it for a shopping trip, or two; they love shopping so much that as soon as pay day comes around, their money will disappear in the blink of an eye.

This is why I am here to help. These ‘outfits for under’ articles are here to guide you through the Swindon shopping experience with ease and within a budget. This time we are focusing on that everyday casual outfit.

Marks & Spencer

M&S provide a few different genres of clothing within their store. Indigo is a good one to look at as their stuff is causal and within budget. If you can’t find what you’re looking for in store, they can also help by offering their online service.

Jeggings

A cross between a legging and a jean, the jegging is a perfect piece to a casual outfit.

They let you breathe (and eat as much as you want) as the waistband is stretchy, but they have the look of a jean.

This pair of mauve jeggings is perfect for the coming spring. Its time to step away from the dreary dark colours and welcome spring with open arms in gorgeous pastels.


Price - £29.95

Top

Pair the jeggings with this pretty little Peter Pan collar top.

It’s floaty and not clingy, perfect if you’re not a fan of showing of your figure.

The star detailing will help to add a bit of pattern to your outfit.


Price - £22.50

Cardigan

To complete the outfit, pair with this lovely ¾ cardigan in the black.

It will help to bring out the pattern and collar of the top and will keep you warm in the spring breeze.

You could also add a pair of pumps to the outfit, probably in a beige colour to keep your outfit light.


Price - £15

Outfit total - £67

Top Shop

If you prefer something a bit girlier to go out with, why not try Topshop. They have some great every day girly pieces that will keep you looking stylish throughout the day.

Dress

The speckled roll sleeve mini dress is a perfect everyday dress.

It consists of a nice t-shirt feel material that would flatter most figures.

The burgundy colour is my favourite and again, we are starting to bring colour back into our wardrobes.


Price - £26

Tights

It's not quite warm enough yet to bare your legs to the world!

Pair your dress with these spotty tights to bring some fun to your outfit.


Price - £8.50

Jumper

As the dress clinches you in at the waist, instead of a cardigan, pair it with a cropped jumper.

This gives the look of a skirt and top, turning one outfit into two, therefore getting more for your money!

Why not try this pastel pink cropped jumper?

It compliments the burgundy perfectly and will keep the cold at bay.


Price - £30

Outfit total  - £64.50

River Island

This brand has taken its first big step into the fashion collaborations world. Recently featuring at London Fashion week was Rihanna for River Island, which will be released in stores and online next month.

For now though why not try some of these essential pieces for your casual wardrobe.

Leggings

Panelled leggings help to give your legs a slimmer look.

These grey ones are perfect for the spring, stepping away from colour for a second, darker colours naturally slim you.

The panels add for a more detailed look.


Price - £20

Top

Pair this cream oversized top with the leggings.

This will give u a more casual look and won’t make you look to overdressed for a quick trip to Tesco.


Price - £25

Cardigan

Add an oversized cardy in navy to your outfit to give you that 
perfect relaxed and stylish look in such an effortless way.


Price - £20

Outfit total   - £65

These tips of what to look for and where to find it should hopefully bring you into the spring mind a bit more, although it’s hard with this very cold weather!

So, start bringing colours back into your wardrobe and greet the seasonal change with style.
